    Power Any stopped working

    Lucas · 4 · Last reply by João Dias

    Out of nowhere "Power: Any" state change stopped being detected.

    Zero clues. Zero messages.

    Is there a way to discover the reason ? A Log ?

    That Run Log from tasker itself doesn't register anything

    I even created the simplest possible task (to beep) when power:any triggers. No deal.

    [AutoNotification] Notification Blocking : whitelist mode

    Mr Man in Black · 0 · Posted

    Hello, I wanted to post a feature request for AutoNotification standalone feature (Notification blocking) but the Joaoapps forum is in read-only mode. I hope my request can be posted here and be considered.

    So I am in love with AutoNotification especially its blocking mode. Works wonders. But can you implement whitelist mode for notification blocking? I have 2 shopping apps which they keep posting promotions and such. i don't want those. I hope I can just input whitelist keywords like "shipped", "on delivery" and "delivered"  so I can specifically track my orders only.

    I know this has nothing to do

    Power button double-tap action isn't triggering on S10

    helgridly · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I'm trying to remap the power double-tap action on my Samsung Galaxy S10 using Tasker.

    I've seen the video on doing this with the Bixby key but am not having luck reproducing it with the power key.

    - I've turned off the "Quick launch" toggle in the stock S10 camera - Got the popup asking if I wanted to set tasker as the power double-tap action (and restarted the phone as requested) - I've tried the adding the custom setting to make sure this persists at startup as per here

    All to no avail.

    - If I select the Tasker

    Calendar state gets inactive during appointment

    JasMan · 2 · Last reply by JasMan

    Hi there,

    I'm facing an issue where I'm not sure if it's an issue of my phone (Pixel 3 with latest updates) or Tasker.

    I created an task which switchs the background picture when my calendar shows that I'm having on-call for my company (State -> Calendar Entry). The on-call appointment is a bi-weekly recurring all-day appointment for 7 days. When the on-call starts, the background switchs as expected.

    But during the week sometimes the profile becomes inactive for some hours. I added a log task with timestamps to the task to see when this exactly happens. But there's no

    Structure output does not recognize my csv

    Mathias Fröjd · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I have a messy csv file that i make multiple splits to be able to extract the datapart i need. When i finaly have the data i want i make a new variable (%csvA) with "variable set" and have the "structure output" checked.

    When i then try to list all data from index 2 with %csvA[2]() i get nothing. If i list index 1 i get all the data from the variable.

    To be able to only get the index 2 data i can use %csvA[2]() but only if i first go to the "Vars" tab, click the variable %csvA and

    Missing Permissions notification popping up frequently

    Ryttch · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi! Whenever a task is saved or when closing Tasker, this message shows Tasker needs the following permissions(s) for the functionality you have configured: Access fine location *Variable %WIFII The problem is, I'm aware the variable works with location only, but I denied this permission in purpose, because it is not needed for what I'm trying to accomplish. Only THAT variable is necessary for my task. Now, is there a way to prevent this notifications to pop up again and again? Because it is driving me crazy to click on cancel every time I try to configure some tasks. If

    KEYBOARD action causes screen keyboard to disappear then reappear.

    Joe Cornelius · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Thanks for such an amazing tool!

    I just used a 9 button scene and KEYBOARD action to create a DPAD and give myself the &^%$#@!!! arrow keys (and, eventually, the Delete key) missing from most keyboards.

      Good news:  It works!

    Bad news:

      The keyboard disappears, then reappears after a beat.

    It's kind of jarring to use, as-is.

    Setting the "don't restore keyboard" flag is an ok workaround, but if it's possible to choose not to hide the keyboard that would be useful.

    Phone Ringing Caller Name Failure

    John C McAuley · 0 · Posted

    Phone ringing event only triggers on Blank, Any, or My Contact*. (The * is required).  Caller Name In (%CNAME) only returns GMail, never a name.)

    The Phone Ringing event does trigger on phone numbers 555123456*  (Yup the * is required) and %CNAME will be GMail.

    Phone Ringing Event triggering on Contacts Labels would be great!

    Pixel 3 running Android 11 June 2021 update, Tasker 5.12.22.

    Thanks,

    Bluetooth Connected profiles don't fire when a Name variable is used

    Kenneth Wilson · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    Tasker is not firing a Bluetooth Connected event (Profile) if I put a string in the Name variable in the event.

    This is a Profile that I've used for years, and it recently stopped working - after Tasker and my Phone both updated, so I'm not sure which one may have caused the bug.

    The profile triggers an action to set a sound/volume profile in another app, whenever my truck's bluetooth connects to my phone.  But for testing, I created an even simpler profile and gave it one action: to produce a popup message "BT Connected".

    I tested this profile

    Deactivation - Call Redirection Problem

    Christopher Haas · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I installed and used TASKER first yesterday. Therefore  i created a profile (if telephone rings) that a task call redirection (german: Rufumleitung) will start.

    That worked perfectly. But then after testing i wanted to manually disable therefore i  moved the toggle to grey on profile (if telephone rings) but recognized that android holds the message that all calls will be redirected.

    I testet it and it is true, also with deactivation the option still stays and all calls are redirected. I never made other setting on android therefore therefore i must come from tasker...

    Now is this a bug or

    ADB + Airplane Mode

    Gamsin · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    To enable permission for toggle Airplane Mode only requires an ADB appops command be run only once. I have verified this using appops, that after device reboot, Tasker retains permission to toggle Airplane Mode without re-enabling ADB wifi.

    Yet trying to toggle Airplane Mode in Tasker will fail due to ADB Wifi not being on. Tasker does not attempt to toggle Airplane Mode, even though it already has permission.

    If Tasker can retain permissions, then enabling ADB Wifi after reboot appears unnecessary.

    Thank you

    Menu option to find all references to any named item (variable, task, scene, profile, etc)

    Jaron · 0 · Posted

    I often edit tasks that I'm sure are used somewhere but I can not find where.

    I imagine an option on long press of an item that shows a list of everything else that references that named item (including variables, tasks, scenes, profiles, etc). From the list, I can tap to go to that item.

    Currently, we can search. However this idea would be far more capable than the search is, more usable (and quicker) AND you don't have to worry about typing in a variable name wrong.
